legvw 0 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Check your brake fluid, it could be low. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 also if it is not that then check the switch under the handbrake itself, you can clean it with a bit of contact cleaner or it may need replacing. Link to post Share on other sites
